Question
Hi.
I have completed grade 12. What is the required degree to pursue a masters degree in aerospace/aeronautical engineering in the US? Is it okay to have a bachelors degree in electronics engineering? I want to take up electronics now, to have a greater range of options to choose from later, in case I change my mind about aeronautics later. Assuming I still want to pursue aeronautics 4 years down the line, what can be taken up now(except aeronautical engineering)?

Answer
Most masters programs in aeronautics in the U.S. require a bachelor's degree in aeronautical or mechanical engineering.  Check with your school of choice to be sure - they all have websites.  

Here is a list of schools:

I didn't understand your last question.
